Electronic Lover
Breathe Electric Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With a message on my phone
Sweetheart, I wish you were beside me
An electric introduction
A mix of lust and caution
We were watching
But we never ever did it like this before
Slow down
What if she sees in me
How could I be the one and only when she's
So fine, what does she see in me?
She read my profile
She liked my story
Feeling electric
(Electronic lover)
She's my selection
One word leads to another
Sweetest connection
Shut up and just let's go-
She's my love electric
She said i'm just her type
And I like it when she types
Boy, I wish you were beside me
A positive reaction
More distance, more attraction
Interaction
Never ever felt like this before
Slow down is this what's right for me
And could she be my one and only, baby
You're so fine,
It's what you do to me
I read your profile
I like your story
Feeling electric
(Electronic lover)
She's my selection
One word leads to another
Sweetest connection
Shut up and just let's go-
She's my love electric
She keeps sayin' to me
"Boy, you make me go oh oh oh"
I keep sayin'
"Baby, come on over, let's go oh oh oh"
She keeps sayin' to me
"Boy, you make me go oh oh oh"
I keep sayin'
"Baby, come on over, let's go oh oh oh"
Feeling electric
(Electronic lover)
She's my selection
One word leads to another
Sweetest connection
Shut up and just let's go-
She's my love electric
Feeling electric
(Electronic lover)
She's my selection
One word leads to another
Sweetest connection
Shut up and just let's go-
She's my love electric...
